Admins: As long as you talk to me you reversed my admin action and why you did so, I do not object my admin actions being reversed.

If you request something here, I will make an entry on my personal To-Do management system with a reference to your request, and handle it in first-in first-out basis. I do try to do things as soon as possible but there is no guarantee.
